A railroad nlan in Indianapolis says that
from statements made by one Of the Tole-
do, Peoria & Western Company's employees
who worked at the Chatsworth wreck night
and day until 1t was cleared away, he is
convinced that 1876 persons lost their lives
at that place This railroad employee says
he personally knows of that number of
bodies being taken out dead, which were
shipped away to various parts of the coun-
try as rapidly as possible. This evidence
is corroborated by the statements of Peoria
people visiting here. They say that a
number of young men went out to the
scene of the wreck on the first relief train
and remained all day. They stated on
their return that they had counted 10
bodies taken out up to the time they left,
and that 1t was believed several more had
been entirely consumed In the wreck.

While the story is generally circulated
that cattle are cheap and can be bad at
ones own price, yet when you come to
make inquiries of parties having cattle to
sell, they don't appear to be eager to sell
unless they can get the top Of the market
for them Cattle are not as cheap as some
would have it appear they are. The supply
of winter feed is too abundant In Kansas
for farmers to fool away their stock.

there was likely to be a distressing shortage

 Why not: The printers had as much right to persuade the boss not to use plates, as the boss had right to persuade them to work in his office. He was told in effect that as the rules of the Union were opposed to the use of plates, he would have to dispense with the services of union men if he persisted in using them. 1t was a matter of sclf-protection with the printers under existing conditions.

 Finally, we would remind our critic that the difference between trades mionists and Socialists is daily growing less as the light of truth becomes more diilused. There are many trades unions to-day com posed wholly of confessed Socialists, and many more are socialistic in their tendency. The SocialistiC Labor Party is q little in advance, but the great army of labor is surely overtaklng the advance guard; for there is a light ahead that fills them with hope, The time fast approach ing when Iahor-saying machinery will benefit the masses instead of the bosses: bat that time is not yet.

PLAT ES.

A writer in the Detroit 1draUce a"d Lajor Leaf, signing himself "Zeno," insinuates that the Social istic Labor Party and the trades unions are two opposing factions, and that the WoRKMEN's ADVOCATE may find it difficult to represent both. To clinch his proposition he brings up the matter of stereotyped plates, such as were used in the col umns of the New Haven iHi0n, and says:
 "All attempts to suppress the use of labor saving devices are useless and con trary to Socialism. Socialism is govern mental administration of public capital.
 Intelligent trades unionists will agree to the proposition that 1t IS vain to expect to prevent the use of labor-saving devices in the long run. This paper has never taught other wise: but 1t is not for that reason opposed to trades unions, nor are Socialists opposed to trades unions. On the contrary, we believe that most members of the SoCialstlc La Dor Party are members in good standing in some trades union or other. But when q capitalist uses labor-saving machinery to exploit laborers they would be fools to per init it if by refusing to manipulate that machinery they can ''persuade' the capitalist from using 1t, aa a temporary measure, at least. When the industries of the country are un- der control of Socialistic State, there will be no need nor desire on the part of the workers to prevent the use of labor r-saying devices, but just the contrary.
 But "ZeAo" says that ca man $ paper is his voice, and the wealth needed to produce the paper Is per sonal wealth" This is rarely the case to-day. In the matter of the Union it certainly was not the case. That paper was printed to "make money." and the employes who did the work received but portion of the value they created. To be sure. it was fictitious valne, based upon a false system, but still, for the nonce a source of income. The merchants who advertised in 1t be- lieved they gained benefit from their advertisements. The people who read it probably thought they were getting their moneys worth. But the men who produced the sheet were wage-workers with all that the term implies. "Zeno" continues:

CONCLUDED.
 We can now return to the exposition of what Socialism is. The foregoing excursion was indispensable to the better understanding of what follows:
 Our Socialistic Science demon strates that the present form of Society and Government works it's own speedy destruction. Seen from the economical standpoint, society produces more, and is able to produce many times more, than 1t can consume. Side by side with enormous stores of grain, millions of men. women and children are unable to procure by work the means WhcreWith to buy sufficient food. Men and women willing to work in the line of clothing do actually freeze or Sicken in front of filled magazines of clothing and fabrics. Builders of houses, miners of fuel work CTS in furniture may not find a dwelling, may be unable to warm their bodies and ease their weary limbs, while there is an abundance of goods that might satisfy their wants, The cNecrable nonsense. the incredible folly is a tangible reality, that there are too many workers of every kind and-at the same timc-tOO many persons unable to purchase what they can produce, just because there is too much merchandise of every kind for sale. Men by the million are becoming supertluous because they have not the means to work. while such means exist in too great an abundance. And this insane state of things is formed at a time when the most stupendOus discov- cries and inventions are known and may be made almost to order. The age of scientific wonders and technical perfec- ton is also the age of total inability of the learned world to remedy the simplest wants of the greatest uumbcrof persons . Less than century after the spurious tlHttN'i ' lli'if " 'Ntilll''N AIlNl Ila1l~ kind would multiply in geomctrical, and their food only in an aritlmcticaI progression. the focf is established. that food and all the first necessities of man are being produced in far greater ratio than we find purchasers.
 All the teachings of religion and phil osophy are ridiculed by the practices of State and church, legislation and inter course. even in Christian countries Nations protesting tine religion of uni vcrsal brotherhood carry on wars with the most perfect means of murder and destruction imaginable Millions of sol diers in the Old World. and even in the New. are kept on foot, avowedly to guard the peace among nations who worship as God the great herald of Peace on earth and good win among men .''
